  1. Have you ever come across someone who bought $15,000 - 30,000 speakers who didn't say that they sounded just great? It is a self-fulfilling prophesy for bragging rights. The almighty dollar drives so much in this hypocritical world. Those stores that talk bad about Klipsch are just dissssing their competition.
  2. Doesn't Klipsch also own General Motors now?
  3. What I liked most on the DVDs was when Jerry commented on the fact that they placed Elvis at the piano in the famous picture of the four of them. (Jerry, Elvis, Johnny Cash & Carl Perkins) We all know that it should have been Jerry seated at the piano.
  4. Jerry puts his own personality into his singing no matter what song is being sung. All of the cuts have the unmistakable influence of the Killer.
  5. No, you definitely will go. After all you might run into the Parachute Woman. Any group that has lyrics like "I can see that you're fifteen years old, but I don't want you're ID" you just know has to be good.
  6. You ate South Texas brush? What did it taste like?
  7. How did you determine this? From more than 35 years of living, eating and breathing South Texas brush country, and just a few years of catching and selling snakes. But did the snakes share with you that they are more afraid of us than we are of them? If they did share this with you, in what language did they share it?
  8. It's Klipsch Magic.!!! Please remember that our ears are human. They can only hear so well. How much better can other speakers sound compared to Klipsch. Could they actually sound so much better that they are worth the added thousands of dollars? I don't think so. Utopia in audio/video is an elusive, impossible goal to achieve. Seeking it will just drive you crazy. (That's how I got to be the way that I am)
  9. Two subs..............double your pleasure, stir your drinks, vibrate your rump, vibrate the dust off of your furniture, send the dog packing.
  10. Mike, I'll call you soon. Maybe not this week-end but soon.
  11. Do you have any way to measure the frequency sound levels of one vs. two? I'm interested in whether you are experiencing any frequency cancellation with the two speakers side-by-side. Some say that it is not a good idea to use two of a speaker model for the center channel. Just wondering. I've always heard this also, but, if you go to the Lucasfilm THX website, it is recommended that the rear channels be placed side by side directly in the center rear, firing forward for movies and turned 90 degrees away from each other for "gaming". Yea but what does this "Lucas" guy really know?
  12. Doesn't everything odd taste like chicken? Snake Pot Pie? Snake and Lobster? Snakerdoodles? Snake and Beer? Snakesicles? Rum and Snake? Snake Souffle? Snake Jerky? Snake Helper?
  13. Yes, Yes I heard it. It was more like a squeal that a yelp. I remember asking my wife "what is that sound?" She told me she thought it was a caw-caw bird mating. Yes I heard it and I live in Baltimore, Maryland.
  14. You are so, so right Harry. I am going to watch poker playing on TV for my "sports".
  15. Lots of mine have been dead for hundreds of years... Some of mine haven't been born yet.
  16. Lots of mine have been dead for hundreds of years... Exactly how old are you?
  17. Now you are getting with the program. ....excursion and velocity also matters.!!
  18. What you need to do is just set everything up in the living room while the parents are asleep or outta the house. At least it worked when I was still living at home. [] .....and put some soothing music on when your parents return home. Offer them a drink and a comfortable seat. Offer to do the dishes for them. They will come around. Yeah showing her that 15" [] 15" ....and EAR, you said that size didn't matter.
  19. My friends told me I need to bring girls over here to watch movies, then they'll realize that the only place ti sounds better is in the theater, so they'll keep wanting to come back. It sounds pretty foolproof to me...although the "sweet spot" can't be achieved if I'm lying on the bed in a position compatible with a lady's presence... Oh the "sweet spot" can be achieved alright. When I get the girl over there, the sweet spot will be acheived alright. Yes it will and numerous times I might add.
  20. Hey Paul, how much oil is there in Tennessee anyway? How many horse farms are there in Indianapolis? What a farce. The professional sports leagues need to prevent team relocations except in very rare occasions like the Montreal Expos.
  21. Very interesting arrangement. Looks good too.
  22. I built my system for music. Loud music. However, it plays movies quite well. The difference for me was to create 7 identical full-range speakers plus subs as needed. The f-113 is definitely a musical sub. It is unbelievably musical. And it can handle special effects in movies with no problem. I never thought that I could afford a JL Audio product. Then I found a really good JL Dealer with surprisingly low prices. I can put you in contact with him if you let me know at rrinaldi@jhsph.edu
